Oluwole Epidemic: Age-old Den Where Forgery Of Documents Thrives in Lagos by TundeBricklayer: 8:00am On Oct 04, 2023
There was a time when Lagos had a reputation for producing some of the most skillful master forgers in the country.

The reputation of the forgers portrayed them as invincible. They were unbelievably skillful in the artistry of forging documents and signatures of all shades and types, complex and simple. Theirs was an art that could make any forged passport undiscernible from the original, save for the power of machines. Headquartered at Oluwole, Lagos Island, the forgers, were that good. They could forge any document on earth. They were the go-to guys for credit card fraudsters and internet scammers popuarly called Yahoo-Yahoo boys.

In September 2005, a massive clampdown on Oluwole by a combined team of State Security Service operatives, policemen and officials of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, yielded a staggering discovery.

Over 40,000 forged Nigerian passports, 1,500 foreign passports, which included those of countries like Libya, Liberia, Sierra Leone, Congo, Guinea Bissau, Cameroon, Senegal, Switzerland, the Gambia, South Africa, United States, Jamaica, Costa Rica and Ghana were recovered during the raid.

In addition to these, about 50,000 assorted foreign cheques and over 500 printing plates, 500 computers, about 10,000 blank British Airways tickets, 10,000 US Postal money orders and blank certificates of occupancy (all forgeries) were seized.

By June 2010, an ultra-modern market built on the location was opened. Business ended for the master forgers. Or so many people thought.

Words have been passed around for some years that the Oluwole Boys never stopped work. They were said to have simply become smarter in their activities to avoid detection by law enforcement agents.....

After reading this, I paused for awhile to reflect but couldn't come up with any tangible thought. I'm baffled. Nigeria has a long way to go.
